I first became involved with Borzois in 1965, while I was still at school. I acquired my first dogs in 1971, after qualifying as a veterinary surgeon, and bred my first litter in 1973. I have now bred a total of fifteen litters and have made up nine UK champions, six of them home-bred, and also produced several other CC winners.
I first awarded CCs in the UK in 1986 and have judged here a number of times since then. I have also judged the breed in Russia, Sweden, Germany, the USA and Australia. I am judging in Finland in 2011 and at Crufts in 2012.
I am very much looking forward to the opportunity to judge your dogs, and also to visiting Slovenia, which I am told is a beautiful country.
